CHLF: The Blogosphere

YTF Note: Sorry for short story, tired from doing a lot today, but still is pretty a interesting topic.

In 1997, the word "weblog" was coined by a Mr. Jorn Barger. The term was used for pages that held within them links to actual sites. One way to think of how this is, is think of your bookmark function on your browser. Now take that idea, and put it on a web page for the world to view. That was weblogging, the father to the blogosphere. The blogophere (a term that stands for the links between all blogs), is something that will always exist because of how the internet works with the interconnectedness.

Blogs soon started becoming adding more and more content to where they soon left what they started. They added more and more words and reviews and feelings and grew to they. Then as a joke someone said on his site "we blog" by splicing the weblog, and thus created the term blog.
